Chapter 4. Security
This chapter provides information about how to protect your computer from theft and unauthorized use.
Security features
The following security features are available on your computer:
• Computrace Agent software embedded in firmware
The Computrace Agent software is an IT asset management and computer theft recovery solution.
The software detects if changes have been made on the computer, such as hardware, software, or
the computer call-in location.
Note: You might have to purchase a subscription to activate the Computrace Agent software.
• Ability to enable and disable devices and USB connectors
For more information, see “Enabling or disabling a device” on page 79.
• Integrated fingerprint reader (available on some models)
Depending on the models of your computer, the keyboard may have an integrated fingerprint reader.
By enrolling your fingerprint and associating it with a Power-on Password, a Hard Disk Password, or
both passwords beforehand, you can start the computer, log on to the system, and enter the Setup
Utility program by swiping your finger over the reader, without typing a password. Thus fingerprint
authentication can replace passwords and enable simple and secure user access.
• Startup sequence control
For more information, see “Selecting or changing the startup device sequence” on page 80.
• Startup without keyboard or mouse
Your computer is able to log in to the operating system without keyboard or mouse connected.
